Kudos to them.

I'd really agree with you to a large extent if Whoopi hadn't made the stupid slave comment that seems to be the most reported aspect of the interview. The fact that the hard-left can't contain themselves (or their hatred for Republicans) always ends up making their opinions seem more radical than the people (in this case McCain) that they question. Despite the media's full-court press to get Obama elected it doesn't seem to be having much of an effect. But who knows, maybe the cumulative effect will bring McCain down.

The View is surprisingly hostile to candidates. In one episode, (the older one who wasn't Barbara Walters) talked about how she loved Ron Paul in the debates, and when he was invited on the show, all they did was itch their vaginas about their right to abortion.

That one black woman on the show who's not Whoopi, btw, is DUMB :eek:

Dude, this is why people hate talking football with you is because you act like somebody takes an extreme everytime. For instance, "Croyle looked good in the 1st quarter against the Patriots" instantly turns into "We shouldn't draft a QB next year".

Can you imagine how much sooner slavery would have ended if Whoopi Goldberg had actually been around back then? Instead of singing old spirituals and whatnot, she probably would have been doing her stand-up routine in the fields. And plantation owners would have picked their own cotton rather than listen to it.

She is brilliant. As a performer and a person. My point is that McCain would have taken more of a beating on his answers if the headline wasn't about Whoopi asking if she'll be a slave if he's elected.

When you look at the gender gap in voting for women, you will note that it breaks to the Democrats. Democrats do tend to be more liberal. Is it surprising then that a show for women should seem reflective of that. And the fact that someone on the panel has a fundamentalist position shouldn't be surprising. It is true that most fundamentalist no longer believe the world is flat, but they do so by opining verses in the Bible that suggest the world is round. But it is not the teachings of the Bible that would lead us to that understanding of the world. It was science and exploration that gave us confidence in a spherical world and the evidence to keep the Bible relevant was produced after it was so very clear to so many people. The Bible was not enlightening to new understanding, it was science. The Bible's interpretation came in response to keep it relevant.

In case you were wondering what the rest of teh political heavyweights thought of McCain.

"I really cannot bite my tongue anymore when it comes to Sarah Palin," the actress, 22, wrote on her MySpace blog Sunday.

"I couldn't be more supportive of a woman in office, but let's face it, it comes down to the person, and their beliefs, male or female," Lohan said.

"I would have liked to have remained impartial, however I am afraid that the 'lipstick on a pig' comments will overshadow the issues and the fact that I believe Barack Obama is the best choice, in this election, for president," she added.

Although Lohan said she feels "it's necessary for me to clarify that I am not against Sarah Palin as a mother or woman", the star believes that Palin -- the Incumbent Governor of Alaska -- isn't ready to run the country.

She said, "I find it quite interesting that a woman who now is running to be second in command of the United States, only 4 years ago had aspirations to be a television anchor, which is probably all she is qualified to be.

Lohan -- who is rumored to be in a relationship with DJ Samantha Ronson -- also referenced Palin's views on homosexuality.

"Is it a sin to be gay?" Lohan asked. "Should it be a sin to be straight? Or to use birth control? Or to have sex before marriage? Or even to have a child out of wedlock?

"Is our country so divided that the Republicans best hope is a narrow minded, media obsessed homophobe?"

In conclusion, Lohan cited an Associated Press story reporting that Palin's church advocates a conference about prayer curing homosexuality. Wrote Lohan: "Palin's Desire to "save and convert the gays" - really??"

Ronson also chimed in.

"Vote for obama!" Ronson wrote. "Mainly because if she gets elected my green card probably won't get renewed!!!"
